How the Arizona Judicial Performance Review Commission Works

In every General Election, voters decide how to vote for judges in their community. When voters review the ballot, they might see a long list of judges and wonder how to find information to help them decide how to vote on each judge. The Arizona Commission on Judicial Performance Review, a constitutionally created commission comprised of public members, attorneys, and judges, evaluates each of these judges and provides information so voters can make informed decisions.

This Commission asks attorneys, jurors, litigants, witnesses, and other people who have appeared before these judges to complete a survey on the judge’s legal ability, integrity, judicial temperament, and other attributes. The Commission reviews this data and other public input, and then votes on whether a judge “meets” or “does not meet” judicial performance standards.

The Commission publishes its findings in the Secretary of State’s Publicity Pamphlet, which is mailed to each voter household. You can also obtain this detailed information on the web at www.azjudges.info.
